Baseplate

FT-3 Baseplate - The FT-3 baseplate provides a super smooth ride yet is engineered for response. The unique baseplate is canted in addition to the footbed for bio-mechanical stability and power. It's perfect for the rider looking for a binding with mobility and balance.

EVA Foam Footbed - Full cushion heel to toe

4 & 3 hole compatible disc

Straps

Inverted Single Panel Ankle Straps - Designed to conform to your boot with a smooth consistent fit, the inverted construction features a soft round radius and plush for ultimate comfort.

Thin Fit Toe Strap - Thin Fit Straps have an oversized surface area for extra stability and control. The flexible design conforms to the shape of your boot toe to secure fit.

Micro Buckle - Adjust strap tension while you're on the go - you can tighten a couple of clicks for a big hit or loosen for relaxed terrain without even slowing down. Use the micro buckle to release the strap for additional exit and entry space in steep terrain, too.

Highback

FT-3 Aysm Highback - Hyper cored highback is in ergonomic alignment with your lower leg for increased power and control. The highback release lever is cleverly shifted to the side for quick reach around access. Full EVA padding wraps over the top of the highback down to the heel pocket for maximum comfort.

Additional Features

Auto Open Levers - These levers open the straps automatically when the high-back is lowered and close with just one click.

Ability Level:Beginner-Intermediate

Beginner-Intermediate

Someone who is new to the sport or working on linking smoother turns falls into this ability level. Typical beginner ski/snowboard qualities include: softer materials, narrower widths, and capped constructions. The idea is to create a ride that is easy to turn and very forgiving in case you become off balance or fall in the back seat. The addition of rocker in the tip and tail gives a catch-free feeling and shorter contact length when the ski/snowboard is flat on the snow, making it easier to turn.

Flex Rating:Medium

Medium

The amount a snowboard flexes varies significantly between boards. Snowboard flex ratings are not necessarily standardized across manufacturers, so the flex may vary from brand to brand. Many manufacturers will give a number rating ranging from 1-10, 1 being softest and 10 being stiffest. Here at evo we have standardized the manufacturers' number ratings to a feel rating ranging from soft to very stiff. Generally you will find flex ratings of 1-2 as soft, 3-5 as medium, 6-8 as stiff, and 9-10 as very stiff. Flex ratings and feel may ultimately vary from snowboard to snowboard.
